Create Stack
Create the Oracle Essbase stack, from Oracle Cloud Marketplace.
As the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure administrator, you use Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to set up Essbase. Oracle Cloud Marketplace uses Oracle Resource Manager to provision the network, compute instances, Autonomous Database for storing Essbase metadata, and Load Balancer.
During this process, you'll need to provide other administrator user IDs. Review Administrator Access Requirements to understand what these administrator accounts can do.
You can modify the created resources and configure variables later. Logs are created that can be forwarded to Oracle Support, if necessary for troubleshooting. After deployment, you're ready to assign users to roles and permissions in the Essbase web interface. You can also perform additional network and security configuration.
Reviewing or Collecting Output After Deployment
If you didn't keep a record of all of the deployment output, an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure administrator can collect them from the Variables page or Application Information of the Oracle Resource Manager, as well as in the client configuration details of the Identity Cloud Service confidential application.
- Viewing the Deployment
Log into Oracle Cloud Infrastructure console, go to Resource Manager for your compartment, and view the details for the Essbase stack you created. From there, if you click on the apply job, you can see the deployment log and output details. If you selected to use a load balancer, its public IP is in the essbase_url. For 19c through 19.3.0.4.5, if you have deployed a bastion host, the outputs include a bastion_host_public_ip and there isn't an essbase_node_public_ip.
- Viewing the Variables
In addition to using the log to find and record deployment details, you can also view most of them in the Variables page or the Application Information page of the Resource Manager. If you selected to use a load balancer, create_load_balancer is true.
- Viewing the Confidential Application Configuration
To locate the client secret, which is masked in Resource Manager, an Identity Cloud Service Administrator can go to the Identity Cloud Service Console, select the confidential application, and view its configuration.
